Natural Power has invested £900,000 in a bespoke sonic drill rig to enhance the site investigation fleet used by its geotechnical team.
The custom-designed carrier allows for drilling in previously inaccessible locations, such as soft ground or forestry brash. The rig has been used commercially at sites across Scotland this summer.
Natural Power’s geotechnical team investigates the ground at proposed development sites to check the foundations and conditions. The drilling team works alongside geophysicists and chartered geotechnical and civil engineers to carry out a range of sampling methods to identify any potential risks.
